Best Answer

Sitting for a length of time is being shown to be bad for us. It's even being considered lethal.

Our muscles will shorten and atrophy with dis-use whereas walking is what we're here to do.

Our ancestors walked on average up up to 4 hours per day. How many people are doing this today?

The human animal is meant to walk and sit as needed. Watching tv for hours or playing Video Games while sitting, without taking breaks to get up and move around is only asking for trouble later on... if not sooner.

It really depends on the fitness of each. Most likely though, a guy will be better than a girl in sports because males are born with more muscles to develop than females. They also gain muscle just by sitting on the couch, while girls gain half of that working out for an hour. Hope this helps!
